Greetings from Canada. I also watched that incident on Speedvision (mostly a
lurker and fan...not ready for primetime just yet). Perhaps his inside move
was a tad ill-advised, but more importantly perhaps what we all seen there
was a vintage racer doing what a racer does (whether it's his car or
not)...he tried a large scale pass that would have netted him accolades if
pulled off successfully but has instead caused a lot of expensive damage to
several cars and left many of us whining about his skills. WAKE UP RACERS!
What we witnessed was racing, not a parade! While it's important to respect
the vintage cars and their vulnerability to expensive damage or destruction,
they are nonetheless RACE CARS. If you don't want your prize-winning trailer
queen to suffer a crumpled fender....DON'T RACE IT ANYWHERE!
